Résumé 0

According to presentism, there exists only what exists at the present time. Moderate presentism is a version of presentism that emphasizes that only present events exists and admits, as part of the present, past and future times and non-concrete past and future objects. This paper presents moderate presentism with some new details and defends it from the charge that it is not a form of presentism after all. Then, the paper further motivates moderate presentism by showing how it can tackle a recent objection to presentism regarding temporal change, put forward by Lisa Leininger.
